“Of course, you may have your own interpretation, but I do not see where you have been convincing in using scripture to disprove the Communion of Saints in the creeds as taught by the Church.”

D-fender, I’ve not even tried. I have asked up thread for three kinds of proof, but it wasn’t given.

I do not have to disprove anything. I’m not the one who made a truth claim. I did state clearly that I am open to reviewing the evidence that would support this claim, but none was given.

We disagree on who needs to provide proof for their claim.

Scripture clearly indicates we are alive as the body of Christ and that our God is the God of the living and that the Saints in Heaven are part of Christ’s body and so on.

I see you as needing to provide proof that the Saints in heaven are excluded from the Body of Christ and, in this case, intercessory prayer.

You see, according to your interpretation, the need to prove they are included; I see the need to prove they are excluded.

It should be no surprise to you that I will stick with the Church as the authority rather than you.

I do appreciate your time, replies and discussion.
